State Legislator Cedric Glover doesn't want Ragin Cajun or Bayou Bengal beer

With much fanfare, LSU and the University of Louisiana at Lafayette joined a growing trend of allowing brewers to pay them for making “official beers.”
Reading that news in his Shreveport kitchen, Democratic Rep. Cedric Glover said he was appalled. “It struck me deep in my heart. This is wrong.”
For health reasons, for moral reasons, for religious reasons, Glover said he vowed at that moment to use one of his five allotted bills in a legislative session that’s supposed to focus on fiscal matters, to ban public universities from licensing "official" alcoholic beverages. His House Bill 610 also would forbid LSU and UL-Lafayette from renewing the contracts with local brewers when they expire.
Bayou Bengal Lager supports LSU and Ragin’ Cajuns Genuine Louisiana Ale is the official beer for UL-Lafayette.

Critcal legislation, glad to see our elected officials are using their time wisely to make the state better. Last in education? Who cares, we can't have a beer named after a college.

Lardass Glover is a career politician who has always been anti-business...unless dollar bills are put in his pocket.

Glover points out that Louisiana was built on sugar cane and has several distillers of rum located in the state. “So, why not an official LSU rum? Is that next?” he asked.

I love when Politicians use slippery slopes. "why not a offical Meth" will be his next line

Since when is drinking a beer anti-moral? Sounds like an opinion, not a reason.

LSU and ULL are public non-religious institutions. Take this shite to Loyola.

“It’s ridiculous. We’re in Louisiana,” Lt. Gov. Billy Nungesser said about the legislation. “At a time when the universities need money, we have local entrepreneurs wanting to work together. This is a good morale booster.”
woah this is the common sense that is really seen in LA politics

If this is a ploy to get Natty Light as the flag ship beer of state institutions then I'm all for it.

Dude needs to worry about his own 500 lb. health and keep his non-wine drinking Jesus to himself.

“Deep in my heart, I just know it’s wrong for us as a state to allow a public university to put our official stamp of approval on an alcoholic beverage,” Glover said, ticking off a list of statistics on his fingers. Louisiana is the nation’s fourth most obese state, with 34.9 percent of the population overweight.

Cedric Glover was the fattest mayor in the US when he was mayor of Shreveport.
What an honor his name was to Shreveport.

Loyola is a Catholic school, pretty sure they won't care.

I had an internship in Shreveport my last year of school. Glover was mayor then and I met him a few times. He very much came across as slimy and corrupt.
I'm also about 95% sure he was banging one of his secretaries.

True enough.
Take it to Louisiana Baptist University... which is apparently a real thing.
